Had a minute or two to try machinekit, loaded onto uSD. Unfortunately, it's based on 3.8.x which doesn't support USB Hotplug so a non-starter. Also, it froze after about 3 hours so I just shut it down for now. On Tuesday, October 14, 2014 5:41:09 PM UTC-4, jmelson wrote: On Monday, October

I've run into the BBB random reboot problem a while ago. We've eventually found out the root cause is the USB-OTG detection. The USB-OTG periodical probing actually caused the problem. Details and fix please the link below:

Hello, I'm kind of a noob but willing to help investigate if needed. I once had random reboots and traced it to an overheating problem. I don't know if log files trap overheating messages or not. I had a blocked vent and once it was cleared, no probem. On a second point, my BBB is stable

Forget about claiming its a hardware issue. Because it is not. We've had two beaglebone blacks for close to a year, and a half now. Both are rock solid, running off barrel jack power, or USB( one of each ). Ok well just stating facts that bbw is not rebooting and BBB is with the same kernel

Short term, you can disable the hardware watchdog in kernel config. That should temporarily fix your problem, and if it does not . . . bigger mystery. Long term, it would be good to figure out what is triggering the watchdog. strace on the watchdog PID will not work - I tested this myself. The
